In their own words
L-ISA Studio
L-ISA Studio lets sound creators mix object-based audio on headphones in binaural mode or in a studio with up to 16 audio outputs. Its desktop processor can render as many as 96 audio objects to 16 outputs through the L-ISA Audio Bridge. Spatial controls cover pan, width, distance, and elevation, while the Room Engine supports object-based reverberation and Virtual Acoustics applications. Headphone monitoring works with certified head trackers. Control plugins in VST, AU, and AAX formats allow DAW automation of spatial-mixing parameters; the product can also interact with DAWs, show control, game engines, mixing consoles, tracking systems, and OSC devices. The Audio Bridge supports formats including 5.1, 7.1, 9.1, 5.1.2, 7.1.2, 7.1.4, 9.1.6, and 16.0. It runs on Windows 10 or 11 and macOS Catalina or later, with native Apple M1 support. The free tier provides one seat for headphone mixing in binaural mode; speaker mixing and up to 16 outputs are listed for paid tiers. A 30-day trial is listed.
